Pam Roaak’s first-grade class is pleased to announce the opening of Room 6 General Store.
The students have stocked the shelves with containers, cans, and cereal boxes from home, a great recycling idea. They make price lists, inventories and create coupons, which, of course, they double. They also post their daily specials on their door. The checkers check the math with the cashiers’ totals. The project is part of the Cooperative Learning Curriculum, which includes math, money skills, addition and subtraction, language, writing and social skills. And the kids have a great time doing it.
Field Day is fast approaching on June 5. Carol Nowakoeid, the physical education teacher, wants to remind everyone to bring lots of sunscreen and she could use large water coolers for the many thirsty children.
This year Field Day will have a change in the fourth through seventh grade uivision: no ribbons will be awarded, instead points will be scored. Every student will be given a score regardless of the place they finish in each event. They will be divided into the blue team and the white team. The points will be totaled for each team and the winning team will receive a party courtesy of the PTO on Monday, June 8 in the gym.
